Paumonok Opens 1928 Racing Season at Jamaica Track
The Paumonok handicap launches the 1928 racing season at Jamaica track on Monday April 23 for three year olds and up over six furlongs with fifty eight entries. Top weights will likely go to Happy Argo the 1927 sprinter champ though he dislikes sloppy going. Key rivals include Sweepster Sarmaticus Draconis Old Dutch Donner Moi and Nausakan. Old Dutch already set a Jamaica track mark last fall and Draconis shows early promise after returning from a long layoff. The Paumonok has a long history dating to 1906 with notable winners such as Tryster Red River Restigouche and Zev.
